3D printer UltiMaker Method XL

Description

UltiMaker Method XL – industrial quality at affordable prices

Meet the professional UltiMaker Method XL 3D printer with a large printing area that creates precision engineering-grade ABS prototypes. Ensured by a heated build plate and active build chamber that guarantee strong layer adhesion and allow you to create complex geometries on water-soluble supports and protects air quality thanks to the built-in HEPA filter.

Print large parts with industrial-grade materials and high dimensional accuracy – the best solution for engineering applications.

The Method XL is supported by most advanced polymers and software platforms.

UltiMaker Cura for Method XL

UltiMaker Cura now includes print profiles for the Method XL.
Unlock the full flexibility of 3D printing with the Method XL with UltiMaker Cura. You can use the professionally customized print profiles in Cura to slice files for Method XL.

With over 600 print settings, safe 3D printing is now available in UltiMaker Cura.

Heating of the build chamber and build platform

Heated print chamber and heated build plate with VECT thermal management system.
The patented Variable Ambient Temperature (VECT) 100 heats and controls the print environment evenly.

High precision for low tolerances

Method XL has been specifically designed to maintain exceptional dimensional accuracy and tight tolerances when printing even the largest ABS parts. Method XL not only avoids problems with warping and layer adhesion, but also produces massive parts with industrial precision.

• Dimensional accuracy of +/- 0.2 mm or +/- 0.002 mm per mm stroke*.

*(Whichever is greater.) Based on internal testing of selected geometries.

Fast dissolving supports for ABS

RapidRinse in Method XL provides the fastest support removal for complex FDM prints. Create the geometries you need – in any orientation. Then watch these water-soluble supports dissolve before your eyes.

External Material Case

The moisture-proof outer Material Case for the Method XL ensures maximum performance of your professional materials.

Direct-drive extruders

Reliable 3D printing in ABS-R or ABS Carbon Fiber to simulate the material quality of injection molded plastic.

Two filters, one seamless print

Both the HEPA and activated carbon filters are integrated into the machine, ensuring that you can use the Method XL indoors without worrying about harmful fumes or pungent odors.
